20 Thoughts All Goodwill Shoppers Have

Almost everyone loves poppin' tags at thrift stores, like Goodwill. The experience is kind of like hunting for old, used, cheap treasures. Sometimes, you may leave with a cute, vintage-looking flannel and a few festive Christmas mugs with small chips on the handles. Other times, you may leave with nothing, but sheer disappointment because you were sure you would find something you didn't really need, but just had to get. We may disagree on politics and what to eat for dinner, but we can all agree on these 20 thoughts everyone has while shopping at Goodwill.


1. Smells like feet and a musky, old linen closet.

2. Where is the Target rack?

3.

I might need this for spirit week or something one day.

4. I just have to have one of these Christmas sweaters!

5. Why would anyone ever give this away?

6. These shoes don't look or smell too bad... plus, they would go with this oversized sweater I just found.

7. I wonder if this stain (or smell) will come out in the wash? Oh well, it is only $6.

8. I NEED this.

9. This is so cute! I bet no one would ever believe I found it at Goodwill!


10. Aww, I used to have this VHS tape! I wonder if it actually is mine? I will have to ask my mom what she did with it...


11. What on earth is that?


12. Okay, do NOT put your hands near your face until you wash them. Do NOT.


13. Oh I just have to get this for *insert name*! She/he is going to have a fit over it!


14. I think my mom/dad used to wear something like this. I can totally bring this look back!


15. I don't think the owner of this mug even bothered to wash it before they brought it in.


16. Will I get lice if I try this on?


17. This looks just like something I saw in a window at the mall! *checks tag* Oh heck yes, I have to get this!


18. This record/CD isn't scratched too bad. Plus, it's only $1...


19. "Your total today is $___!"

WOAH, I AM SUCH A SMART AND MATURE SPENDER! They should put me on one of those TLC shows!

20. I need to throw all of this in the wash ASAP, and then take a shower for an hour.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
